HC Deb 16 May 1895 vol 33 c1346
SIR MARK STEWART

I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer if he can state to the House the percentage of Income Tax collected in England and also in Scotland; whether the collections are more satisfactorily and more cheaply carried out in Scotland than in England?

*THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER

said, that it was the fact that the Income Tax was more fully paid in Scotland than elsewhere. That was, no doubt, due to the fact that there was less intolerance of taxation in Scotland than in any other part of the United Kingdom.
